-> no, i use SIO and Vmodem with both real serial ports and virtual   
   -> ports... with both DOS and native OS/2 programs...   
      
   Must work on ECS. But on Warp4, Vmodem gave me some dll error message   
   and failed to run.  I have a Warp4 test partion, maybe I can try again   
   when I get curious about it.   
      
   -> true... in many cases, folks have been spolied by the install and go   
   -> stuff... few really understand how it all works these days :/   
      
   The 32-bit, and now, 64-bit programming models are easier to work with,   
   no doubt.  But if you never experience the 16-bit DOS pain, you're not a   
   real programmer. :-)
